FESTUS’ MONOCHROME ERA GUNSMOKE SONGS
THE 12 SONGS
The first episode that really initiated the peculiar singing style of Ken Curtis as Festus Haggen and containing the greatest amount of fine performances remained: the season 9 “Comanches Is Soft”. The two folk songs that set Festus’ trade mark are: “Since the Mud Creek Incident” and “Cornbread and Buttermilk”.
season 9 (8)
• “Once a Haggen” (#18) (“The Road to the Graveyard”, “Chickens on the Pen”)
• “Comanches Is Soft” (#23) (“Since the Mud Creek Incident”, “Don’t Let Any Comaches Outdrink You”, “Don’t Take Any Pretty Girl’s Word”, “The Rocky Road to Wichita”)
• “The Warden” (#33) (“Cornbread and Buttermilk”)
• “The Other Half” (#35) (“Shall We Gather at the River”)
season 10 (2)
• “Double Entry” (#15) (“Cornbread and Buttermilk”)
• “Eliab’s Aim” (#23) (“I Had a Little Hen”)
season 11 (2)
• “The Storm” (#2) (“Since the Mud Creek Incident”)
• “My Father’s Guitar” (#21) (“For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow”)
